Duke Brickhouse is a former trial lawyer and entertainment attorney who has refocused his life’s work to exposing the truth of our subjugated planet and to help raise humanity’s collective consciousness at this crucial moment in our planet’s history, in order to break out of the dark and negative false reality that is preventing the natural development of our species, to put our planet on a path of love, light and harmony in preparation for our species’ ascension to a fourth density, and to ultimately take our rightful place in the galactic community.

• After astronaut Scott Kelly’s year-long stay on the International Space Station, NASA compared Scott Kelly’s physiology with his identical twin brother, Mark Kelly (pictured above). They discovered that while most of the changes to Scott’s physiology returned to normal soon after returning to Earth, 7% of Scott Kelly’s DNA has been permanently altered. NASA has speculated on the existence of a “space gene,” which might be activated by conditions in space, causing changes in DNA.

• Identical twins have almost identical DNA, which makes them ideal candidates for studying the mental and physical health effects of space. It was Scott Kelly himself who suggested NASA use him and his brother Mark as test subjects. NASA says the changes to Scott’s DNA “related to his immune system, DNA repair, bone formation networks, hypoxia, and hypercapnia.”

• Telomeres are components of chromosomes that shorten with age. NASA expected the radiation of space to accelerate that shortening. They found, however, that Scott’s telomeres actually lengthened during his stay on the ISS. They returned to normal within two hours of his return to Earth, squashing any hope of finding the space-fountain of youth.

• While on the ISS, Scott’s gut bacteria also changed dramatically but returned to normal once back on solid ground. NASA scientists do not know whether it was due to differences in the food he ate or environmental factors, such as gravity and radiation. Being in space had no effect on Scott’s cognition, yet after returning to Earth his mental speed and accuracy began showing slight decreases.

• The full results of the NASA study will be released later in 2018.
Either space is weirder than we thought, or NASA ripped off The Fantastic Four. According to a study published by the space agency, space travel can permanently alter your DNA. Identical twin astronauts Scott and Mark Kelly were observed over the course of a year after Scott touched down on Earth after a yearlong stay on the International Space Station. The Twins Study is part of an ongoing NASA effort called the Human Research Project which studies the effects of space on the human body in preparation for eventual manned missions to Mars and other prolonged trips through the void.

Identical twins have almost identical DNA, which makes them ideal candidates for studying the mental and physical health effects of space: any changes in the space-faring twin’s physical health would have to be caused by an outside force and not due to natural variation. Identical twins are rare, and astronauts even rarer; luckily NASA has plenty of the latter and two of the former. It was Scott Kelly himself who suggested NASA use him and his brother Mark as test subjects.

What they found is quite strange. While many of the changes to Scott’s physiology returned to normal soon after returning to Earth, they found permanent changes as well. It seems that 7% of Scott Kelly’s DNA has been altered permanently. NASA has speculated on the existence of a “space gene,” which might be activated by conditions in space, causing changes in DNA. NASA says the changes to Scott’s DNA “related to his immune system, DNA repair, bone formation networks, hypoxia, and hypercapnia.” Whether these changes were seen as positive or negative were not said. We may have an answer if the retired astronaut suddenly begins a career as a vigilante superhero, or if it turns out he’s the mothman.

Predictions for the Twins Study were also proven wrong. Telomeres are components of chromosomes that shorten with age, and NASA expected the radiation of space to accelerate that shortening. They found, however, that Scott’s telomeres actually lengthened during his stay on the ISS. They returned to normal within two hours of his return to Earth, however, squashing any hope there might have been for finding the space-fountain of youth.

• Is the release of the existence of the cigar-shaped “asteroid” Oumuamua and the NY Times article on the $22M Pentagon program to investigate UFOs part of a deep state/NASA plan to create public panic as a prelude to a staged alien invasion in what would be the largest ‘false flag’ event since 9/11?

• Ufologist Dr Steven Greer says that it may be “a pretext to justify [the U.S. military’s] existence and get the world to eventually spend huge sums of money on a perceived if contrived threat from space.”

• Or could it be part of a deep state contingency plan to dominate the U.S. military in order to marginalize President Trump?

• [Editor’s Note] See a December 24, 2017 article by Dr Michael Salla speculating on the reasons for the government’s revealing the existence of a Pentagon UFO program and a U.S. Navy video of a ‘pill shaped’ UFO in a December NY Times article, and the ‘To The Stars Academy’ who facilitated the release of this information. Says Dr Salla: “I’m sure major U.S. defense contractors are salivating at the prospect of building fleets of armed anti-gravity spacecraft to respond to a contrived… threat to U.S. national security through a secret space program.”

Conspiracy theorists have claimed the authorities in the US are working in conjunction with space agency NASA and media organisations to create panic, before staging an alien invasion to get a tighter grip on the public.

UFO hunters state that the theory began with a New York Times article last year which revealed the existence of a $22 million Pentagon program that investigates UFOs.

Around the same time, scientists announced a cigar-shaped asteroid had entered our solar system – the first time an interstellar object had been detected in our galactic neighbourhood.

Retired physician Steven Greer: “Strictly speaking, the militarists and war-mongers, itching to ‘kick some alien butt’ as it was said in the movie Independence Day, may actually only want a pretext to justify their existence and get the world to eventually spend huge sums of money on a perceived if contrived threat from space.”

Return of Kings conspiracy website wrote: “As utterly insane as it sounds, it seems possible that the US Government is preparing to try to convince the world that there is an alien invasion about to happen, in the largest ‘false flag’ since 9/11.

• Where did the terms flying “discs” and “Unidentified Flying Object” used to reference a mysterious aerial craft come from? If you said they were coined with the Kenneth Arnold sighting over Washington State in 1947, you would be wrong.

• A newsletter of the British Royal Air Force’s 115 Squadron during the latter part of World War II described an anomaly as British bombers were flying over Bremen, Germany of “many reports of silver and red discs above the formations. These have been seen before but up to now no-one has been able to decide their purpose.” The British 348th Group also reported “a cluster of discs observed in the path of the formation near Schweinfurt (Germany).

• Sometimes the mysterious discs were described as being several feet in diameter or more. On another occasion the discs were described as “silver coloured – one inch thick and three inches in diameter. They were gliding slowly down in very uniform cluster. A/C 026 was unable to avoid them and his right wing went directly through the cluster with absolutely no effect on engines or plane’s surface”

• Two months after the June 1947 Kenneth Arnold sighting, the U.S. Air Transport Command’s Weekly Intelligence Summary entitled “Flying Objects in Guam” stated: “Unidentified flying objects have been observed by three enlisted men of the 147th Airways and Air Communications Service Squadron at Harmon Field, Guam.”

Over the years UFOs have had various names, depending on the era and the description of the craft. In the latter part of the 19th century there were the “Phantom Airships.” During the Second World War pilots encountered what became known as “Foo Fighters.” In 1946 the skies of Scandinavia were filled with reports of “Ghost Rockets.” In the summer of 1947 the terms “Flying Saucer” and “Flying Disc” were both used. Today, people talk about the “Flying Triangles.”

Yes, “Foo Fighter” was the primary term used to describe what was seen during the Second World War. But, the term “Disc” was also used during the hostilities with the Nazis. I mentioned this to a certain UFO researcher recently and who practically had a shit fit. I was wrong, he assured me, stating that when it comes to unidentified “things” in the sky, the word “Disc” was not used until 1947. Actually, that’s wrong, as I pointed out. Granted, many people – even within Ufology – may not know just how widely “Disc” was used during the Second World War. I’ll share two examples with you; two of many.

From the latter part of the Second World War (the exact date is missing) comes the following from the in-house newsletter of the British Royal Air Force’s, 115 Squadron: “Under this heading there occur from time to time reports of weird and wonderful apparitions seen during our (and the American) attacks on Germany. We have asked our local Inner Circle bloke to comment on the latest species of wizardry. Here is his story…believe it or not.”

The document continues in slightly humorous fashion: “On the 11th December the Yanks paid one of their daylight visits to Emden. Visibility was good and the weather clear. An unidentified object was seen in the target area. It was about the size of a Thunderbolt and passed 50 – 75 yards beneath the formation. It flew straight and level (No chaps it was not a Lanc.gone mad…) at a terrific speed, leaving a streak like a vapour trail which remained visible for a long time. The object passed so quickly that the observer could not determine it more accurately.

Finally, there is this, also from the same document: “Suggestions will be welcome…serious ones…as to what this Loch Ness Monster of Emden might have been. (Prize… one year’s free issue of this News Sheet…if the publication survives as long.) Another of the attacking aircraft was hit by a length of wire which bit deeply into the nose. Twenty feet were coiled around the nose and something caused the bomb door to open. The wire may have been towed behind a fighter which had just made an attack upon the bomber; some form of explosive charge or weight may have been attached to a parachute fired from a rocket projectile, though no parachute was seen. An examination of the wire is taking place and it is hoped that this will shed some light on the occurrence. In another attack, this time on Bremen, there were many reports of ‘silver and red discs above the formations [italics mine].’ These have been seen before but up to now no-one has been able to decide their purpose. Suggestions please.”
